A party word game for one phone
One of your friends is lying.
Three to twelve people, one phone, and one of you holding a vague hint instead of the word.

Everyone sees the same word.
Except one of you.
Here is one real hand from the free Animals deck, exactly as the app deals it. Same round, same deck, two different truths.
Eleven people at that table read Giraffe. One read Big — and now has to say a word about giraffes without knowing that giraffes are what everyone is talking about.
- 01
Pass it round
Everyone takes the phone in turn, holds their card to read it, and hands it on. Let go and the card hides itself — the next pair of eyes never sees the last one’s.
- 02
Give one word
One word each, out loud, about the secret. Too obvious and you have handed it to the imposter. Too vague and the table starts looking at you.
- 03
Argue about it
No timer, no turn order, no rules about what you are allowed to say. This is the part that makes people shout across a dinner table.
- 04
Name them
The phone reveals who was lying and keeps the night’s score. A caught imposter still gets one guess at the word — out loud, and the table judges it.
Fifteen animals with jobs and something to hide.
Everybody picks one. All fifteen are free and always have been, and not one of them plays better than the others — a character is a costume and a job, never an advantage. They do change how they look at you after a round, though.
- Before the roundEveryone starts here.
- Got away with itNobody worked out it was him.
- CaughtThe table named him. He is taking it badly.
Fox
the undertaker
Measures you with his eyes when you walk in.
Cat
the fortune teller
Saw all of this coming. Said nothing.
Duck
the detective
Solved every case except the one at this table.
Goat
the preacher
Preaches forgiveness. Keeps a list.
Bat
the dentist
Says it will not hurt. Long word, that one.
Owl
the night watchman
Awake for the part you slept through.
Meet the other nine
Tiger
the biker
Rode in from somewhere. Will not say where.
Rex
the bartender
Remembers what everyone ordered. All of it.
Raven
the postman
Reads the postcards. Delivers them anyway.
Rabbit
the surgeon
Scrubs in early. Never says what for.
Frog
the chef
The soup is fine. Do not ask again.
Mole
the miner
Been down there a while. Dislikes questions.
Beaver
the schoolteacher
Grades on honesty. Fails most of the table.
Sheep
the barber
Gives everyone the same haircut. Somehow.
Possum
the janitor
Cleans up afterwards. Never asks what happened.
Three faces each — before a round, after getting away with it, and after being caught. 45 drawings in all.

Your store shows the price in your own currency. Buying on one platform does not unlock the other — there is no Impostr account for a purchase to travel on.
Questions people actually ask.
Does everyone need the app?
No. One person installs it and the phone goes round the table. Three to twelve people play from that single device.
Does it work without internet?
Rounds work offline — on a train, up a mountain, in a restaurant with bad signal. A connection is only needed to buy or restore the unlock.
What do I get without paying?
Five rounds every day, the Animals category on Rookie difficulty, and one imposter. All fifteen characters are free, always. The daily count resets at your own midnight, not a server’s.
Is the unlock a subscription?
No. It is a single optional purchase that stays bought: all 30 categories, three difficulties, all eight word-bank languages, the two-imposter option, and no daily limit. The store shows the price in your own currency.
I bought it on my iPhone. Does it work on my Android too?
No. The purchase lives with the store account that paid for it, and there is no Impostr account to carry it across. Buying on one platform does not unlock the other.
How do I restore a purchase?
Sign in with the same Apple or Google account you bought it with, then use Restore purchase in Settings or on the unlock screen. You will need a connection so the app can ask the store.
Which languages does it speak?
Word banks in English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Serbian and Dutch. The app’s own interface is English for now.
Are there ads?
None, and no advertising tracking. Your names, settings and scores stay on your device. Apple or Google handles payment, and RevenueCat validates purchases and sales analytics for us — that is the only data that leaves your phone.
Do some characters play better than others?
Not one of them. A character is a costume and a job, nothing else. Nobody gets a longer hint or an easier round for picking the Fox.
The gate is still open.
Neither store listing is live yet. Leave us a line and we will tell you the day it is — that is the whole mailing list, and it is just us reading the inbox.
